Very nice, gentlemen - you put me to shame! Not very long ago, my wardrobe was comprised entirely of oversized, years-old stuff from old navy and wal-mart. I decided to start dressing better, but I'm around the house most of the time nowadays, and I haven't worked up to wearing a suit for that.

This outfit is nothing by your standards, but may be a personal best for casual-wear. I think it works for the grocery shopping and errand-running I did today....... Possibly better untucked or with lighter jeans, but it's a start.

Looks good Nathan! Shirts a tad bunched up front, i avoid this by gathering any excess at the side seams, pulling outward, then "folding" to the rear. Takes a bit of practice but easy enough to master and really improves the front aesthetic.

A minor niggle in the long run of course.

I learned civilian clothing is authorized for ID photos and since mine expires tomorrow, I've opted full beans on the photo. Never get to do THIS again so....hehehe?

Wow, that is a fantastic looking pinstripe suit! I dig the wide peak lapels. Thanks for the shirt tucking tip, I'll try it next time.

I notice often the optical-opposite colored (or trimmed) pocket square is just the thing. I'll have to try it next time I get dressed up.

Here's what I wore today. It's one of the few times I've tried to put a shirt under a sweater (or any layer under any other layer for that matter). I messed with different shirts and a couple of v-necks I've obtained until I arrived at this. I think it works.

The doc martens I was not sure about (meh on them in general), but their color works for me. What say you?
